An Engagement....

A lady I met a while back contacted me to make 4 cards for her, this is the first.

It's her daughter Karen with fiance to celebrate their engagement.

Jean e-mailed the photos over and this is what I made,

 

The card is 8x8" square and has Basic Grey Indie Bloom paper as the background.

The mount for the photo came with a magazine and had lovely words and sentiments on it so I used that and cut around elements to slide the photo under.

 

 

I added some ribbon and a tie to the side.

The letters are from the Basic Grey Indie Bloom collection pack.

I outlined them with a white Signo pen - wow how juicy are they!

Then, once dried added glossy accents.

 

 

I punched some retro daisies and doodled around the edges plus a Martha Stewart butterfly and some fronds.

 

The centre of the large flower is a circle punch, the smaller are candi.

I added some jewels as the butterflies body.

The engagement letters are peel-offs.

 

I hope she likes it - the rest are to follow.
